Topic: Oldschool Television

I realised we don't have a TV section so I feel this thread would be more appropriate in here. Any ways, is anyone here a fan of old-school television? And I'm talking about 60's/70's shows like Happy Days, MASH, Gilligans Island, Golden Girls, and Batman of course. I've been watching a lot of old school television lately and old school cartoons like Tom and Jerry, Pokemon, and Digimon. Anyone here a fan? Also, the Happy Days theme song is catchy.

We must be strong and braveOur home we've got to saveIf we don't in just one yearMother Earth will disappear

Fighting with the GamilonsWe won't stop until we've wonThen we'll return and when we arriveThe Earth will surviveWith our Star Blazers

Still have it memorized, though I tend to screw it up sometimes (I always say "The Earth will disappear" instead of "Mother Earth..."). I'm a Nova fan, but Vampy thinks Starsha is hotter. Nope, not seeing it.

Those are the only ones coming to me at the moment. I'm sure I'll be back with more. Oh, and there were a couple imported Japanese shows I loved as a kid. One featured a family who could turn into robots and when they killed one of their alien enemies they'd melt into blue goop. I can never remember the name of that damn show, but I loved it back in the day.
